lol, just check the tally for English voters.
I am not saying that we aren't biased but just saying that they go both ways.
Even if it cancels out to some extent, the rest of the result will have low significance.

Also removing, the question marks, the "neutral" vote is 22 not 27. Small sample size.

Funny, could've sworn you were saying that a few posts back
Couldn't be further from the truth, what the results show is a highly significant variation

Streetwise too..Social seems too have voted too now.
Love also how those whose support is not clear and voted in favour of Richards is not Indian,but those who voted for tendulkar are considered indian.

Tendulkar was man of the series for the tournament.
Richards failed too in the 1983 final.

Bravo....magnificent misinterpretation, then again some people just can't grasp obvious patterns, just one of those things I suppose.
Did kind of enjoy the crack about the North Pole though, least the humors good

I think it's pretty clear what zinzan is getting at and there is no need to misinterpret it. It's not the best kept secret that Sachin is a handful of centuries away from getting on equal foot with Gandhi and the sensivity towards this bias is telling really.

This is hypocrisy at best.

Tendulkar is well loved by the Aussies and neutrals. Also, most importantly, he IS definitely better IMO, there is a gap between the two.

Ikki can never be accused of having a bias toward Australia.Obviously

Little late to this thread, but Richards, Tendulkar and Bevan are clearly the three best ODI batsmen of all time and I find them incredibly difficult to separate because they were such such different players. Richards and Tendulkar were both destructive top order batsmen but played in different eras in versions of ODI cricket that are barely comparable, especially in terms of early overs batting.
Richards' statistical record compared to his contemporaries is more compelling so that's where my vote went, but I can also see the argument for Tendulkar based on the sheer weight of runs and consistency over a long period.
Bevan does warrant comparison with these two IMO but I think it's pretty hard to argue that he was better or worse because he played a completely different role. It's like comparing Lara and Ambrose or whatever. However you look at it, I'm sure all three of them would be in everyone's ODI XI.
